As the only mention of violent porn etc that pops up on my computer are these reports of moral outrage I wonder if Cameron has considered that an internet filter that blocks all mention of it will cut out his own ramblings on the subject and the "silent majority of right minded citizens " won't know what an upright geezer he is and will forget to vote for him.

You can call the Daily Torygraph a few things, but its hardly left-wing.

The porn industry made a lot more money in the 1980s, so maybe it will be a good thing.

The Daily Telegraph isn't saying that 600,000 children will be poor. It's quoting "the report, published by the Office of the Children's Commissioner for England", which is hardly an unbiased organisation. I doubt there are many Tory voters in the upper echelons of the Office of the Children's Commissioner for England.
The Children's Commissioner for England is Dr Maggie Atkinson who believes that Jon Venables and Robert Thompson were too young to face trial for the murder of James Bulger and had to apologise to Denise Fergus. She described the murder as "exceptionally unpleasant". It was not an accident. Thomson and Venables sexually assaulted the toddler and then systematically tortured him to death with kicks, punches, beating with bricks and blows with an iron bar. They then laid James across a railway track, covering his head with bricks, so his body was severed by the wheels of a train.
Do you think Maggie Atkinson is a Guardian reader by chance?
Johno, Johno...

Can't imagine who you are referring to. If it's me, I must be the only "extreme right winger" who votes Labour and has never voted Conservative in my life.

Where did I say it was "typical"?

So it it is only a "small minority", what's the problem? Where are all these families in dire poverty?

And New Labour did precisely what to rectify the situation?

I always find it hilarious when right wingers assume that everyone but everyone seems to be left wing. One wonders why the Socialist Party didn't win the last election.
You provide three links from the Daily Telegraph, because a right winger described your previous quotes as all left wing. Yes, the Independent newspaper which didn't recommend any political party at the last election. Must be a hotbed of Commies then. And then you mention quotes from charities - all Trotskyites methinks!
And you can't even win by quoting from the Daily Telegraph
""The Daily Telegraph isn't saying that 600,000 children will be poor. It's quoting "the report, published by the Office of the Children's Commissioner for England", which is hardly an unbiased organisation. I doubt there are many Tory voters in the upper echelons of the Office of the Children's Commissioner for England."
Well, if the poster had read the link you provided, he would have seen that the work had been done by a group of independent economists commissioned by the no doubt rabidly left wing organisation of the Office of the Children's COmmissioner. Obviously they could have paid the economists to lie but if that was the case it seems strange that so many other groups agree with the gist of the findings.
One of your other links quotes statements from the rabidly Maoist Tesco organisation.
"An estimated 18 per cent of the country were forced to skip meals, ask friends or family for food, rely on a food bank or go without so their kids could eat in the past year. And the report, commissioned by supermarket giant Tesco, claims the problem will only get worse as rising bills force place an unprecedented squeeze on disposable income. The report found that 70 per cent of parents rely on school meals to help feed the kids in term time and two-thirds of these fear the summer holidays will mean their children miss out on nutritious meals. The research comes a month after Oxfam claimed foodbanks were now a lifeline for half a million people.
And finally, I must berate you for this Andy but you include a Daily Telegraph link which includes quotes from the Stalinist Office of Budget Responsibility which Boy George quoted endlessly whilst Shadow Chancellor and also the Commie infiltrated Department of Work and Pensions.
"Overall the figures showed that a freeze on wages or a series of below-inflation pay rises and steep increases in fuel and food prices over the last few years have effectively wiped out improvements in living standards in the first decade of the 21st century. Average household incomes dropped by three per cent in real terms between 2011 and 2012, the second year in a row in which they have fallen, taking them to levels not seen since 2001. "
"It follows a report by the Institute for Fiscal Studies this week which showed that workers have suffered ?unprecedented? wage cuts since the 2008 financial crisis"
Please Andy, I would be grateful if you stopped providing links to all this Commie shit.
Kind Regards
David
